Equity Teen Actors Needed for 'Destiny of Desire' Production

Project Overview

Casting Equity teen actors for the theatrical production of 'Destiny of Desire'.

About the Project

SYNOPSIS: Experience the vibrant and humorous homage to telenovelas in this engaging story. Set in Bellarica, Mexico, two baby girls are born into starkly different lives—one in wealth and the other in poverty. Their lives intertwine due to a scheming ex-beauty queen, leading to a journey filled with scandal and extraordinary destiny. This production features Brechtian interludes, Shakespearian-style antics, and live music, appealing to both telenovela fans and newcomers alike.
